[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s hard to describe the smell (which is why I’m looking for a service to help investigate it) but maybe musty? I haven’t seen any leaks and the reason we chose carpet is because we host family with small children who stay there and it’s comfortable. [b]The smell only appeared after a family friend lived down there for a few months. [/b]It’s bothering me that I can’t identify it so therefore can’t figure out a solution to get rid of it [/quote] This might be a long shot but could it be rotting food? Did you check everywhere (drawers, back of closet, etc.)? Have you tried airing out your basement with windows fully open for a while? Are you running a dehumidifier? [/quote]
